When the Oscar Mayer Wienermobile comes to town, it’s important to go visit it. I’m not sure exactly why, but the sight of a 20 foot long hot dog on wheels makes me think of a time when gas didn’t cost $3+ a gallon, and America was a bit more … silly.

Or perhaps sometimes a banana is just a banana. Either way, it was neat to see one of these.

Apparently, they were first created in 1936.
